My StoryYour presence is cherished, and I’m grateful that you made your way to this space.
Come, settle in with a cuppa, Roogenic or Yorkshire Tea are my favourite, relax and have a little wander down memory lane with me. Let me share with you about the ‘Dawning’ of Little Peg the magical moments and all the little soulful stories, which are part of where I am today.
Memory Lane.Growing up.Growing up in a quaint coastal town in the UK, I cherished the sight of countless golden sunsets over the sand dunes from my bedroom window. Exploring the beach, cycling through the Pinewoods, and nurturing my creativity in the garden, I was immersed in nature.
It all started with my Mum and Granny Peg
Pink blossom leaves scattered the floor of our front garden and we had a beautiful rockery that mum spent hours caring for. I loved watching and helping her, so much so, I asked for a little patch of garden for myself. That little corner of garden was so precious to me. I nurtured it and in turn, it nurtured me.
Nature has always been my refuge, a place to find solace and clarity.
From a young age, my passion for art was evident. I eagerly requested art supplies for birthdays and holidays, including Spirographs, Airbrush pens, Fashion Plates, and Velvet glitter art boards. I even participated in art workshops during school breaks.
The idea of pursuing a career in art began to take shape during high school. After completing my A levels at an Art college, I pursued a degree in Fashion & Textile Design at university.
Mrs. Trish Worrell, my uni tutor, was the first to recognise my deep connection with nature as a vital aspect of my creative journey. I am immensely grateful for her insight. I yearned to be outdoors, especially at the onset of a new project.
Always starting off by wandering, awakening the senses and just letting myself ‘be’, all my projects started with photography, capturing my inspiration became a cherished pastime.
Throughout my academic endeavour’s, my educators immersed me in the realm of creativity, honing my skills and knowledge. I found joy in translating my own visual narratives into fabrics, drawing endless inspiration from nature's patterns, colours, and textures.
“The thing I like most about being in your class is when you are proud of me””
Fast forward a few years, my husband and I were on the plane to start our new life in Australia. Leaving was rough but my husband and I both knew that we needed follow this dream.
I went back to uni and completed a teaching degree. Combining my passion for the arts with other learning areas, I enjoyed fostering students’ imagination and connection with the world. Seeing students’ little faces light up when they achieve is just delightful.
My students and Teaching career taught me a lot. It was here I saw first-hand how valuable taking moments of pause, showing the kids how to wander with the singular focus of ‘noticing nature’. I learned about kids wellness and it sparked a whole new passion that merged my art and teaching into one.
A little highlights about me.

Uluru Dreaming
I had a shoe box under my bed and decorated it with paper and felt tip pen. For years, I saved my pocket money to fund my travel dreams to Australia, to Uluru. In August 2012, we made it and it was the most spiritual and energetic experience.

The Secret Garden
Spending time in the garden and fostering a love of nature in my little boy warms my heart and nurtures my spirit. It’s in my genes. I have fond memories of tending to the garden with my Mum, Granny Peg and Auntie Margie. Granny taught me about ‘Kitchen Magic’ and using the plants to heal. I’ll always dream of travelling faraway lands, exploring the vast beauty of the world, but being in the garden is just as special when you look closely.

Super Powers
All the woo woo, such as angels, crystals and oracle cards are my cuppa tea. Making people feel special, valued, and loved are my superpowers.
Friends describe me as warm, kind, determined and enlightening.
Spring, Autumn, and Winter are my favourite Australian seasons.
My hopes.
I hope for us to build a community that fosters a connection with nature, each other and the next generation. That these connections and knowledge brings healing and a sense of peace to us all. If we can take a moment to see beauty in the details of life and Mother Nature, I believe tranquillity will ripple, and as a community we can find calm.
I hope collect consciously and creating spaces with objects that speak to our soul, enabling you to feel settled and safe, whilst reducing the impact on the environment.
I hope to shine a little light in your world, evoke memories, inspire you to pass stories of the heart between generations.
